2006 Campaign Ad Watch

[poughies]

Steele's ads are just plain terrific.... he will lose, but by much.....

Lamont has lost something I think from his primary ads.... They seem to only appeal to those voters who probably are already voting him......

Ford's ad is just genius and they have been. The reason is simple..... Those who hate the ad are most likely already voting for Ford, while those that might be leaning or undecided like it. What will Corker say? It will most likely upset his base.

Her grammar isn't great, but the ad is good. Plus, look how young Casey looked with all that hair!

Does this hurt or help Ford.... I lean towards help. Yea, the news is negative, but the reaction will be positive. People who would usually sympathize with this Atheist group or organization are already voting Democrat. The ad is a real pitch towards those middle tennesians.....

[poughies]

I'll agree...... Heck with Rendell on the ballot, Casey just has to coattail... And where would he do that? Philly... and where does this ad play best? Philly.....

I could of told u that a week ago..... I keep telling people that this race has a better chance of flipping than Missouri.... If the blogosphere put half as much energy in raising money for Ford as they do for Tester or Webb than this race wouldn't be as close (though Jane Hampshier or whatever her name is can keep her mouth shut in concern to the race).... Harold Ford Jr. was Barack Obama before Barack Obama was Barack Obama... and by that I mean a young, good-looking, intelligent african american in the democratic party. Granted Ford is much more moderate/conservative. His ads are hard-hitting, genius, and genuine. More importantly, his church ad, while flamming the atheist groups, play so well and establish him as the "christian" candidate.

Ford's new ad-

I do like when Harold comes on camera..... though i love the music and voice like that show with the fancy houses.

[poughies]

Its the richness combined with the pay raise freeze.......

[poughies]

no its not true. I agree.... but that doesn't mean it isn't effective.

[poughies]

Yea well Koch is strange.... supports Spitzer and Bush..... he just likes anyone who he thinks is "strong" on national security..........

[poughies]

WTF was that?

[poughies]

And u wonder why Ricketts campaign went up in flames?

[poughies]

Montana and Wyoming have VERY different values from Kansas and oklahoma.... or Alabama and Mississippi..... Interior northwest..... idaho is next you know.

[poughies]

was it the second or first district that had a democrat leading in one of the polls. I had some optimistic hope for Brady.... but I haven't heard much good news on that front. I still think Cubin is in a lot of trouble....

FUNNY! I love Ford as everyone who reads my posts knows, but I WATCHED THAT CORKER AD 500 times. I just loved the music and Fred Thompson's voice.... I REALLY DO!

Want to see some polling.....
